In the show I was just in, the older lead had to have obviously dyed hair (it was in the script), so he got his hair dyed an unnatural shade of black. By the end of the run, of course, his hair had grown a little and he had what someone dubbed “halo hair”–black on the outside part, gray for the inside 1/4″.

Fri, 07 Jun 2013 20:14:03 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=467974#comment-508518I love seeing all these sons/grandsons/descendants of earlier players. I know it happens in other sports – Steph Curry being the latest NBA example – but it feels like a baseball tradition.

Not that most of these guys will make it, of course. But how amazing would it be for someone like Shoeless Joe’s great grandson to get to the Show?
